Description

Myths and misconceptions still abound about addressing dissociative identity disorder (DID), other dissociative disorders, and even dissociation within complex trauma using the EMDR approach to psychotherapy. A most harmful myths is that EMDR Therapy should be avoided absolutely with DID and people with high levels of clinically significant dissociation. Although EMDR is one of the most effective and widely researched treatments for trauma-related pathology, even the most seasoned EMDR therapists and trainers can find themselves baffled in working with dissociation.

Your guide for this recording addresses these problems from several angles—as a person with a dissociative disorder and intricate internal system, as an EMDR Therapy practitioner and trainer, and as a long-time recipient of EMDR therapy as a client. Solutions are proposed for helping professionals become less afraid of dissociation by more fully embracing their own internal world of responses and parts. This paradigm shift can lead us to more effectively serve our clients and to not judge all dissociative minds as the same. Even if you are not specifically an EMDR therapist please consider attending, as multiple concepts presented in this workshop translate well to any trauma-focused modality.
